Their First Time Seeing a Black Person in a Chinese Village
Harmony2nd 2025-07-2016 min

Today I visited a remote village park in China — and something beautiful happened. As a Black foreigner living in China, I often stand out — but this time, a group of curious kids approached me with genuine questions about my skin color and where I’m from.

Their honesty led to a real, unplanned cultural exchange that was both heartwarming and eye-opening. I took time to explain and help them understand that people come in all shades — and that our differences are beautiful.

This video isn't just about race — it's about bridging cultures, opening minds, and making real human connections in unexpected places.
